Florida dealers will come together at the 2021 FIADA Annual Convention & Trade Show at the Hilton West Palm Beach from August 1-3. The event has a full schedule with networking opportunities, educational sessions, and speakers lined up for attendees. Keynote Speaker Joe Lescota is an executive automotive retail educator and will be sharing techniques for boosting sales and profit in the increasingly competitive used car industry. Dealers will also hear from FIADA’s General Counsel, Rob Sickles, and the Bureau of Dealer Services’ Program Manager, Palmer Brand.

Our shows and events are off to a slower than usual start. We hope that summer brings a busier, but still safe, show season. ADD wants to help keep your calendars up to date with these upcoming tradeshows and events: Florida Tow Show | 4/8-4/10 | Orlando, FL National Council of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL) Spring Meeting | 4/15-4/18 | Live/Virtual Hybrid (Charleston, SC)

We’re proud to announce the latest addition to our DMV123 secure electronic access to real-time title and registration data. After many years of working with the Ohio BMV, ADD launched access to that much-requested state’s records in late March. The Ohio connection follows on the heels of launching District of Columbia records in late 2020. Access to records in any jurisdiction is based on that particular state’s permissible uses and our individual customers’ legal DPPA exemption for accessing data. When a new state becomes available, ADD automatically includes it in the DMV123 drop-down box inside each qualified customer’s account. That’s why we encourage our customers to check that drop-down box periodically to make sure you aren’t missing out on new, valuable access to these important records. So, go ahead and check that DMV123 drop-down box and see what surprises may be there to improve your daily business and regulatory transactions.

Our 2021 tradeshow season is off to a good start. ADD is working hard to stay safe by following proper handwashing, mask-wearing, and social distancing protocols. The spring trade shows include some in-person events alongside some virtual events! Auto Data Direct wants to help keep your calendars up to date with these upcoming tradeshows and events:
